HF761 - In The Bleak Midwinter
Trådtittelen er tittelen på et dikt av Christina Rossetti fra 1872, som senere ble satt til musikk av Gustav Holst i 1906 og av Harold Darke i 1911. Spesielt Darkes versjon har blitt en svært populær julesang i engelsktalende land:
In the bleak mid-winter
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak mid-winter
Long ago.
Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him
Nor earth sustain;
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign:
In the bleak mid-winter
A stable-place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty,
Jesus Christ.
In the bleak mid-winter

Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,

Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him
Nor earth sustain;
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign:
In the bleak mid-winter
A stable-place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty,
Jesus Christ.
